Bailey B:

Loves these tacos. My personal favorite is the carne asada taco and the chicken taco but haven't had a bad one yet! Perfect place to stop by for tacos and a drink before games, concerts, and other events downtown. Also queso is really good, Texan approved.

The green butcher taco, the gringo taco, the taquitos, the carne asada burrito, the fish tacos, the margarita, ALL of it... was SO GOOD. This is the best food we've had in Phoenix and you should absolutely go and enjoy it. The ambiance is fun too! We even got shirts because their style is that awesome.

Traveled to Sedona and we made a trip to Phoenix to see the city life here and this was the highlight of the Phoenix trip. We got the carne asad fries (way bigger than expected), 2 carne asad tacos, and a maui wowie taco. The corn tortillas were crispy and delicious!! The mango habanero sauce is sooo good and pairs great w the maui wowie...

We arrived at Chase Field for a L.A. Dodgers game. We decided to walk around downtown near the stadium and found this great taco joint. My wife had the Layered Taco Salad with chicken and said it was so good. I had 3 tacos. The Green Butcher, the Pork Belly and the Sloppy Jose. All 3 tacos were amazing. My favorite would definately be the Green Butcher...
